BRAND NAMES
Angular
The name Angular represents the work and promises provided to you by the Angular team.
When not specified, Angular is assumed to be referring to the latest and greatest stable version from the Angular Team.
Example
Version v4.1 now available - We are pleased to announce that the latest release of Angular is now available. Staying up to date is easy!
Example
Correct: "New *ngIf
capabilities—new in version 4.0 is the ability to ..."
Incorrect: "New *ngIf
capabilities in Angular 4—Angular 4 introduces the ability to ..."
Reasoning
By not using “Angular 4” in the title, the content still feels applicable and useful after version 5, 6, 7 have been released, as the syntax is unlikely to change in the short and medium term.
AngularJS
AngularJS is the v1.x series of work and promises provided by the Angular team.
Examples
- AngularJS is one of the most used framework on the web today (by number of projects).
- Millions of developers are currently building with AngularJS.
- Developers are beginning to upgrade from AngularJS to Angular.
- I’m upgrading my application from AngularJS to Angular.
- I'm using AngularJS Material on this project.
AngularJS projects should use the original AngularJS logo / icon, and not the Angular icon.
Angular Material
This is the work being performed by the Angular team to provide Material Design components for Angular applications.
AngularJS Material
This is the work being performed by the Angular team on Material Design components that are compatible with AngularJS.
3rd Party Projects
X for Angular
3rd parties should use the terminology “X for Angular” or “ng-X” for software projects. Projects should avoid the use of Angular X (e.g. Angular UI Toolkit), as it could create authorship confusion. This rule does not apply to events or meetup groups.
Developers should avoid using Angular version numbers in project names, as this will artificially limit their projects by tying them to a point in time of Angular, or will require renaming over time.
Where a codename or shortname is used, such as on npm or github, some are acceptable, some are not acceptable.

As always, component and directive selectors should not begin with “ng-” selectors as this will conflict with components and directives provided by the Angular team.
Examples
- The ng-BE team just launched
ng-health
to help developers track their own health. - I’m going to use NativeScript for Angular to take advantage of native UI widgets.
